Watch Your Ass
An old man, a boy and a donkey were going to town. The boy
rode on the donkey and the old man walked. As they went along
they passed some people who remarked it was a shame the old
man was walking and the boy was riding.
The old man and the boy thought that maybe the critics were
right, so they changed places.
Later, they passed some more people that remarked, what a shame
he makes that little boy walk. They then decided they both would
walk!
Soon they passed some more people who thought they were stupid
to walk when they had a decent donkey to ride.
So, they both rode the donkey.
Now they passed some more people that shamed them by saying
how awful to see such a load on a poor donkey. The boy and the
man said they were probably right, so they decided to carry
the donkey.
As they crossed a bridge, they lost their grip on the animal
and he fell into the river and drowned.
The moral of the story?
If you try to please everyone, you might as well kiss your
ass good-bye.
